Geodirectory Looper Question

[coverberg]

Hi, I am working on a client’s site that uses Geodirectory to compile Member and Events information. According to their documentation it is possible to output that information using meta keys (see the yellow notice at the top):

GD > Post Meta - GeoDirectory Docs

I am wondering if there is a way to do something similar to this post but with the Geodirectory meta keys in the Query String:

Looper Query String: Featured Products

Hello there, I know that according to this post, there isn’t a way to use the “Query Builder” to return featured products from Woocommerce. However, with the addition of the “Query String” options in Pro 4.1, I wonder if there is. I’ve tried to scour the internet for a solution to this, but as of yet, the closest I’ve come is this Stack Overflow answer. However, the answer provided is not a query string to be parsed by the WP-Query and I’m not exactly sure how to transfer the information there …

My end goal is to use the meta keys to create a Post Looper that shows all the Events that are upcoming and orders them by the start date for the event.

Thanks for your help in advance!!

Hello @coverberg,

Thanks for writing in! I would highly suggest that you identify first what are the post meta or custom fields. You can use the JSM Show Post Metadata. When you edit a particular event, it should display all the metadata and you can use it to find out the exact metadata name or custom fields and the values.

Best Regards.

Thank you for the recommendation. I installed plugin and it isn’t showing any of the Geodirectory fields. Does this mean there isn’t a way to output the Geodirectory meta keys into a Query String?

Ok here you go. Thank you!

Hey @coverberg,

You can use the dynamic content post meta {{dc:post:meta key="geodir_name"}} for example, {{dc:post:meta key="geodir_street"}} to display the Event information.

Hope this helps.
